How to enter a relationship with every romance option in Yakuza: Like a Dragon
In Yakuza: Like a Dragon, there are six female NPCs that Ichiban can romance by chatting outside of their normal occupation. You can improve your relationship with these NPCs by giving them gifts. Different characters want different gifts, so you’ll need to judge what they’d like, find something, then hope they respond well. You can find gifts scattered around the world, in shops, and by crafting them with the help of the Survive Barkeep.
Once you’ve handed them a few gifts and they’ve responded well, you’ll need to raise your personality stats to unlock new tiers of romance. Unfortunately this isn’t as exciting as it sounds. It basically means handing out more gifts. When you’ve finally handed them a bunch of gifts they like, you’ll max out their relationship meter and you can officially enter a romantic relationship with them.
